Oven Roasted Corn
The simplest dinners are the ones that always seem to get the kids to jump for joy. A quick trip to the Farmer’s Market and you’re ready to roll. Tangerines, guacamole from fresh avocados, strawberries and fresh roasted corn! Corn is so sweet right now you can just roast it in the oven, with very little prep and very little seasoning.
When you buy your corn in husk, open it just a touch to make sure it’s not WORM EATEN. I know, barf. That is rare, but I still like to check. Normally if you find that one is good, the whole batch will be good, just sayin’.
Now some people soak their corn, which is fine but I rarely have the time. So just crank up the oven and thrown ‘em in.
Heat the oven to 350 degrees – place the corn right there on your oven rack for 35 minutes.
Take it out – be careful – these things are blazing hot. Carefully pull back the husks, and add butter, salt, cheese, whatever you’d like, but honestly, it doesn’t even need it. It should be sweet and creamy, right off the cob!
My family was been conspiring to open a food trailer that sells roasted corn and snow cones. They don’t know how to cook so I’ll give them your recipe. Seriously, thanks! It’s been so long since I roasted corn in the oven that I forgot how.
I can’t wait until corn is in season here…in late July. Sniff.
